Readers requested more information on the program.

According to Tom Logsdon, GIA Senior Technical Director and author of Understanding the Navstar: GPS-GIS-IVHS, about a dozen satellites have been rigged to navigate using onboard GPS receivers. The earliest models, which were manufactured by Texas Instruments and Magnavox, reached their orbi
